Winemaker's Notes:

Spice Route’s signature style has always been robust, spicy red wines, rich in character and certain to enhance every occasion. This blend of red varietals represents a fusion of flavours, as does the unique, spicy South African relish from which Chakalaka takes its name. South Africa’s past has brought together many different cultures, creating today’s “Rainbow Nation” of which they are justly proud. Chakalaka shares this heritage. This is a vibrant red colour. Ripe, dark fruit aromas with cloves coming through on the nose. Medium to full bodied with ripe spicy plums and dark cherry fruit flavours. Oaking is restrained, but provides structure to back up the ripe flavours. Perfect with red meat or rich dishes!
